[QUOTE="reed mosser, post: 157103, member: 1589"] I just getting a gunsmithing business started. I have all the necessay equipment and am adding to the inventory daily. I have been truing remington and savage actions installing barrels and muzzle breaks. I want to have a volume business and am willing to charge less for labor for a constistant rate of work. I don't want to over price myself and be sitting idle. These are the prices I have in mind. Harell's break installed $90. Chamber rifle with barrel nut remington or savage, yes I do have remington barrel nuts $100. And true up remington or savage action recut threads face action and can rebore for savage or remington to accept PTG bolts $100 not including PTG bolt. I built quite a few rifles and am confident in my work. I dont have years of experience or a huge repution to ride on so I want my prices and work to stand out. I now the local smiths are charging from $175 to 275 for breaks installed, $250 for chambering , and you can wait up to a year for a rifle built. I also want to keep a inventory of Benchmak barrels on stock for remington or savages with barrel nuts so I have a barrel chambered and out to the customer with little waiting.
